At Atrium, you’ll find an inspiring escape from the everyday, an enchanting and visually stimulating environment that celebrates color, whimsy and passion. The design was inspired by colorful French cafes and Art Deco buildings. The lines, colors, shapes and patterns are fascinating, unafraid, and daring. Atrium gives you the freedom to let your hair down, have a little fun, and enjoy the pleasures of an incredible meal in a fantastical space.

BAR ROOM
The bar room envelops you with the feeling of a traditional Paris cafe. Handmade fluted tiles by local ceramicist Charlotte Smith are delicately installed around the entire bar front. Twinkling brass chandeliers by Smith Hanes Studio feel reminiscent of opulent Parisian homes full of magnificence and grandeur. The glowing arched Deco bar back holds everything needed for your favorite cocktail.

The hand painted mural in the bar lounge is inspired by the iridescent plumage of the Glossy Ibis bird. Smith Hanes Studio worked intensively with muralist Kipper Millsap to set the tone of the lounge and create a whimsical, enticing space. Imported Spanish fringe lights accent the mural, illuminating the large round tables below. Two-toned pink banquettes wrap the entire room creating a sensual and alluring lounge.

MAIN DINING ROOM
Stepping into the main dining room feels like walking in a Paris garden or conservatory where everything around you is lush and full of life. Custom installations by local florists, Pinker Times, drape from the ceiling, their dried petals, leaves and vines suspended mid-air. The dining experience at Atrium is reminiscent of a garden party where you’re free to enjoy yourself among the unique natural beauty of each petal and branch.

Massive hand blown pink glass sconces with brass arms cantilever into the dining room giving off a warm pink glow. The soft blush-pink banquettes effortlessly divide the fern-green room into more intimate settings. Finished in plaster and walnut, and adorned with full height curtains, the space is completed with deeply rich finishes that complement the lusciousness all around you. It’s a fantastical space unlike any other, located in the corner of Ponce City Market, and waiting for you to fall in love with it.
